I need help in suspending users from Canvas for clean-up purposes. How do I bulk delete users that are no longer being used? Thank you
Hi @BISADMINLMS2023
If your users were created using the SIS Import tool, you can upload a list of users with a status of "deleted" as a CSV file in order to mark them as a deleted and no longer available on the system. The file format for user files (with an explanation of all the fields) is at https://canvas.instructure.com/doc/api/file.sis_csv.html
Hi @BISADMINLMS2023 , thank you for your query.if you're looking for users not to be able to access Canvas BUT still want to leave enrollment information and analytical data in Canvas, I'd suggest updating the user status to suspended.

Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
A recent change my students have been complaining about is that they now have to wait for Canvas to process submissions so that it can be displayed within the browser before they can check that the submission worked.
